Located in Oregon Hill with contemporary-retro 1970s décor, original paintings, and an eclectic ambiance, L'Opossum is an offbeat eatery owned by Chef David Shannon that offers diners a unique menu of French fare with a Southern spin. If the quirky décor doesn’t catch your attention, the elaborate menu will; it boasts dishes like the Melange of Manikintowne Mesclun, Polyamorous Hippie Three-Way (toasted poppadums with quinoa tabbouleh, hummus and babaganoush), and Skillet-Seared Foie Gras Springs a Leak.

Just as delightful desserts and a range of libations are also on offer, and the tongue-in-cheek eatery is open for dinner Tuesday through to Saturday.
